- Tikhomirov J: 12.4° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 245°.
- Farthest visible point
- 15.2 km away at azimuth 104°, 3.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,171 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 35.6° under it at azimuth 284°. At 2026-10-22 17:28:39 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 1.9 km, the global LOLA terrain tier of 16 pixels per degree; relief smaller than that, near or far, is smoothed, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.

Peaks on the skyline
- 245° Tikhomirov J, 13.3 km away, 12.4° high, 2,985 m above the ground here
A ray every 0.5 degrees out to 200 km across the NASA LRO LOLA terrain, the curvature of the Moon included; each peak is named only when an IAU feature's mapped footprint lies over the point that forms it. Smooth terrain between samples, no boulders.
